Chapter 104 Hunting the Steel Monster Bird
The whole family went back after only staying for a few days, and Xiaogang would continue to accompany Xiaozhi on the trip. Only Saburo was left behind to help Jiro with some chores.

For example, clean the body of big steel snakes.

Of course, he was reluctant at first, but under the temptation of MEGA evolution, he could only submit obediently.

For now, Jiro still has two unused keystones in his hands, so naturally he should leave one for him. After all, he is the most talented trainer in the Wu clan besides himself.

As long as you polish your character well, at least you don't have to worry about the decline of the Dark Gray Gym in the future.

Let’s not mention it at this time, but the expansion work of Niijima has hit a bottleneck recently, and the corpses of the dark green horned beasts are not enough.

For the stability of the island in the future, better stone materials must be used for the foundation. Otherwise, it would be a joke if the island fell apart after a high-intensity battle.

But in this real world, good stones are really too expensive. Even though Jiro has a lot of money on hand now, it is okay to buy ordinary sand and stones with this money. If you buy precious stones, you can't buy much.

Therefore, this foundation must still be found in the primitive world.

But for several days in a row, Jiro explored in other directions, but did not find the dark green horned beast. After thinking about it, he decided to take the risk to hunt those steel monster birds that already knew their nests.

First, I checked the ground next to the steel forest, and found no danger, so it would definitely not work to provoke those strange birds all at once, and figured out a way to lure them out one by one.

After several days of careful observation, Jiro finally discovered that these strange birds actually like to collect some shiny things.

This is easy to do.

Using local materials, with the current body strength of the big steel snake, it is enough to go deep into the ground to find some minerals such as crystals, and send it to search first.

He also inspected the places where traps could be set.

This kind of trap is best located on the route of the steel monster bird's daily activities, but it should not be too close to the steel forest, so as not to attract a large group of monster birds.

After some observation, Jiro set up a place about 500 meters away from the forest.

There is a rock there, which is not blocked by trees, so it can be found by the strange bird more easily, and once the strange bird flies down, just drag it into the forest.

It can not only weaken its flying advantage, but also prevent its forest from going so far. It is simply an ideal ambush site.

Everything is ready, now just wait for the big steel snake to come back.

About an hour later, a slender steel strange bird with wings more than ten meters long suddenly flew over the stone.

At this time, a dazzling light suddenly flickered in its sight, and when it lowered its head, a beautiful crystal was reflected in its sharp eyes.

Speaking of it, it was considered cautious. After confirming that there were no other similar creatures around, the bird retracted its wings, and the whole bird galloped down towards the crystal in a hunting manner.

However, just as it was about to grab the crystal, a voice sounded abruptly.

"Boss Kedora, rock avalanche."

Accompanied by this sound, several large stones fell on the body of the strange bird.

In normal times, this little injury is nothing to a guy with a steel body, but at this moment, it is the time when the old strength has just gone and the new strength has not yet been born.

It was hit directly by these stones and temporarily lost its ability to fly.

Immediately afterwards, the stone under the crystal suddenly opened its mouth, bit it and dragged it directly down into the ground.

The speed is too fast, and there is no chance for it to reflect.

Yes, after the big steel snake came back with the crystal, Jiro did not use the previous rock to hold the crystal, but used the big steel snake to expose his head on the ground.

In this way, the strange bird is dragged into the ground and its flying ability is cut off.

However, the steel monster bird is not an ordinary person. In such a situation, it can actually launch a counterattack.

With a flick of the tail, the one-meter-long tail feathers directly separated from its body and stabbed the big steel snake that was dragging it.

Taking a closer look, the originally indestructible body of the Big Steel Snake was pierced tens of centimeters by the tail feathers, that is to say, its body is big, if it were anything else, it might have been pierced directly by this move.

Under the pain, the big steel snake let go of its mouth.

But at this time, the attacks of the rhinoceros and the others had already connected up, directly blasting and killing the steel monster bird in the ground.

Speaking of which, the body of this steel monster bird is really hard enough, and it took a full round of tricks to get rid of it. If it wasn't for losing the flying advantage, Jiro really couldn't do anything about it.

Afterwards, Jiro quickly asked the rhinoceros to pluck the feathers from the big steel snake and move their positions. Looking at the wound, it was fortunate that the life of the big steel snake was rather special. If it was a life of flesh and blood, it would be GG.

The steel monster bird is a monster more terrifying than the dark green horned beast.

Whether it is the body's defense or attack power, it completely kills the former, but it is not known whether its body can be turned into a cornerstone after death.

Stay in a safe place and confirm that no other steel monsters have noticed the abnormality.

Jiro stepped forward and knocked on the body of the steel monster bird. The sound of knocking on steel made him happy. It seemed that this was an even better cornerstone than the dark green horned beast.

It's just a little small.

Although the steel monster bird has such a large wingspan, it is actually not as large as the dark green horned beast. If it is used as a cornerstone, it means that more corpses are needed.

But this is not important anymore, the steel forest is boundless, and there are countless steel monster birds living in it. I am afraid that even if I spend my whole life, I will not be able to kill them all.

The most important thing now is to determine whether it can be taken out.

"Diamondhorn, you come and put it away."

After the experiment, the corpse was no different from that of the dark green horned beast, both of which could be taken to the outside world, which made Jiro finally heave a sigh of relief.

However, after putting away the body, a stone unexpectedly fell down. Upon closer inspection, it was a crystal, and a keystone was wrapped in the crystal.

This is an unexpected gain.

The more keystones, the better. Jiro would never dislike too many of them. With this one, there are three free keystones at his disposal.

As for the five steel feathers, they were eaten by all the Pokémon. Although the nutrition was not as good as that of the previous boss, these were the tail feathers, which were the essence of the steel monster bird.

Just looking at the appearance of a few Pokémon, you can tell that this is also a great tonic for them.

After eating and drinking enough, the hunt continued. A mere strange bird could not satisfy Jiro.
